ADDING MORE OF THESE, WHEN TIME

 

Sir Robin ,

First of all : execute Advanced WindowsCare 3 ( Beta ) ...

One-click , first of all ...

 

SirRobin,

It would be nice (for the folk's @ home) and responsible if you took the time to document what you've got there.

Cool. Here are some I never go without for my Unattended XP Dvd. I am not saying they all are 100% documented to actually improve anything. But I have used these in a reg merge for maybe 3 years now, no problems. They get merged during install, so I don't know what happens if you use them after your system is up and running.

Okay, but it would be better if you wrote some sort of description, gave a link.

'EventID 4226: TCP/IP has reached the security limit imposed on the number of concurrent TCP connect attempts'

Event ID 4226 Patcher

 

lol, you would be correct I suppose. For the sake of having every know reg edit in one place that would indeed be grand. I will not unfortunately be doing that. I have way way too many reg tweaks to even think of that. Might I suggest if one really wants to get down to it that MSFN.org would be a very very good resource for reg tweak collections. Most I collect are designed to be implemented with a new install of XP, to make it behave the way I want. MSFN has a very intesive area for this type of thing, and many more qualified answers than I can hope to give.

Still, a good reg tweak is sometimes worth it's weight in gold... or a few barrels of crude.

Sul.

 

I found that by disabling last access timestamp really screws up defrags

 

Look to description of Advanced SystemCare 3 on thread : " Your NEW BEST Free Softwares Anti-Malware and Windows cleaners ..."

Thanks, P ( Beta )
